Awww man...well this makes up for when I did the Voyager figures April Fool's back in 2009. I remember I was given hell for that. :P

Nice!  I can't believe they announced the next Select figure is Janeway with replicator diorama and interchangeable coffee cups!  Also can't wait for the "Spock's Brain" helmet Trek Tek and the Pakled ship coming up in 2016.  It's a good time to be a fan!

I feel that would actually be a good select figure of Janeway. Except for the coffee mug, didn't she always have the same one? 

 

Interchangeable hair on the other hand... there's a good Janeway accessory.

They did it for Worf, so alternate hairstyles would be great.  Season 1 bun and season 7 'do.  Continuing with action stances, I'd love to see Janeway standing toe to toe with the Borg Queen (they already have this sculpt somewhere) a la Kirk and Khan.

They could give her the grey Admiral Janeeay hair too since they didn't really age her much.

I really wish DST would indeed do a USS Reliant starship...I think it would be a great seller. Put a big picture of Ricardo Montalban on the box and market it as "Khan's Ship" People would buy it. Wrath of Khan is a big seller. I don't see the Romulan BoP being much of a seller...

Would've been funny if DST announced this the day after April 1st,with the same thread headline,lol! But a Reilant would be neat,I guess.

I thought Reilant had been denied as well? Haven't they denied just about everything that's been suggested? lol

The Reliant would afford them plenty of variants, off the top of my head...

 

U.S.S. Lantree

 

U.S.S. Bozeman

 

U.S.S. Saratoga (DS9 - "The Emissary")

 

Battle damaged Reliant (Impulse engine damage)

 

Really battle damaged Reliant (Impulse, Bridge, Torp pod, missing warp engine)

Only one that hasn't had a flat out no/not next up, is the Reliant.

Also, Round 2 brought out two new models last year - the Romulan Bird of Prey, and the Reliant. Similarly, QMX's latest Star Trek ship offerings where a big Reliant replica, and a plushie...Romulan Bird of Prey. I might be wrong, but I find it odd that two of the three main companies making big Trek ship models, would just happen to produce those two ships by coincidence, and now we know DST is making the Romulan Bird of Prey, I suspect they'll also be making the Reliant.

But I hope it's the Grissom. ;) :P

Guess we'll just have to wait and see then,lol. I don't mind if it's the Reliant. I'll buy it if it's any good.

 

J-R!
